Strange--I have been using Newsblur since GReader closed, and am impressed at how fast it is. There were a couple of brief periods when it was sluggish, but he's done a good job of clearing bottlenecks as they have come up.
FWIW, I have about 400 feeds and about 1000 articles a day, so I am using it fairly hard.
Yes, but for many flights, especially international ones, the charge for those seats is not worth it.
I was looking into flights to Japan, and the Premium Economy tickets are literally double the regular economy tickets.
Many domestic flights have Premium Economy for less than double the price, but it's still expensive enough and the benefits not great enough (generally only a couple of inches of legroom--no change in seat width, no better service, etc) to generally not be worth it unless you are flying cross country.
If it makes it easier to use encrypted email, then it does a little--any emails with someone with whom you have exchanged keys would be encrypted, and thus while they do indeed still fly across insecure channels, they are (presumably) uncrackable.
Obviously, the vast majority of emails would still be unencrypted, and this does nothing for metadata. But anything that makes encryption less cumbersome to use is a good thing in my book.
The opportunity to work on a cutting-edge technical problem at scale most would never get to touch. That's a very tempting proposal. The secrecy itself probably also appeals to some folks.
I'd also imagine that a lot of folks only work on one small part of this, that in and of itself, is not objectionable. Where it becomes scary is when you expand the scope to cover every US citizen regardless of wrongdoing.
Was going to say the same. Has been steadily improving over the last month or two. Still not perfect, but the best alternative I have found yet, and I love that it's under active development by someone who is invested in its success (and paid for it!).
It is... OK. Works pretty well if you don't have a large number of feeds. If you do, can require some decent hardware to run well. Probably not a big deal for most people here, but I got tired of administering it and switched to NewsBlur.
Some of my performance issues could have been MySQL tuning issues, but I just got tired of tinkering with it.
Also a happy user here. Newsblur is by far the best replacement for high-volume RSS power-users that I have found. And the fact that it's open source so I can 1) satisfy my curiosity as to how he is doing things and 2) install myself if the site ever goes belly-up is just icing on the cake.
It's definitely not perfect, but it gets better every day. Performance has notably improved over the last month or so. Kudos to Samuel for a great product. Hopefully someday I'll be able to contribute a bugfix or something to help.
Absolutely. They are very different. The Django Book is a tutorial--very useful, and I do wish that it got more support. I will have to see what I can do with helping to update it for Django 1.5.
But TSoD is a different animal--it's not a "How to learn Django" guide, it's a "How to use Django in the real world" guide. It's not teaching you how to setup models and forms, it's the step beyond that--once you know how to use it, how do you use it well, in production environments? Things that most decent Django programmers know, but that are very hard for those just getting started to figure out except through trial, error, and hours of Googling. There's a big gap in literature here, and not just for Django. I'm happy to see someone addressing it.
